What is Fenofibrate?

Fenofibrate, the active ingredient in Lipidil One, is a fibrate presented as a tablet for oral use. It lowers elevated triglyceride and cholesterol levels in adults with dyslipidemia.

GNH USA supplies Lipidil One as a licensed, GDP-compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals, pharmacies and clinics worldwide.

What is Fenofibrate used for?

Fenofibrate acts on lipid metabolism disorders, helping to improve abnormal blood‑fat profiles.

Hypertriglyceridemia: reduces serum triglyceride concentrations. Mixed dyslipidemia: lowers triglycerides and LDL‑cholesterol while modestly raising HDL‑cholesterol. Primary hypercholesterolemia: decreases total and LDL‑cholesterol levels.

What are the side effects of Fenofibrate?

Fenofibrate may cause a range of adverse reactions, most of which are mild and reversible.

Common Side Effects: - Abdominal discomfort or dyspepsia. - Nausea or vomiting. - Headache. - Dizziness. - Muscle pain or weakness. - Elevated liver enzymes.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Rhabdomyolysis or severe myopathy. - Acute liver injury. - Gallstone formation. - Severe allergic reactions (e.g., Stevens‑Johnson syndrome). - Pancreatitis. - Significant increase in serum creatinine.

What precautions apply to Fenofibrate?

Before initiating therapy, clinicians should evaluate patient‑specific factors and monitor relevant parameters.

Assess liver function: obtain baseline hepatic enzymes and repeat periodically. Monitor renal function: adjust use in patients with impaired clearance. Evaluate muscle health: watch for unexplained muscle pain or weakness. Review concomitant drugs: avoid or adjust agents that increase myopathy risk. Avoid in patients with known hypersensitivity to fenofibrate or other fibrates. Store at room temperature: keep in the original container, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.

What does Fenofibrate interact with?

Fenofibrate can interact with several medicines, requiring careful management.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Statins, especially high‑dose simvastatin or atorvastatin, due to increased myopathy risk. - Gemfibrozil, which markedly raises fenofibrate plasma levels. - Cyclosporine, which can exacerbate hepatic toxicity.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Bile‑acid sequestrants, which may reduce fenofibrate absorption. - Digoxin, where fenofibrate may increase serum concentrations. - Oral contraceptives, potentially altering hormone levels. - Antidiabetic agents, requiring glucose monitoring.

Frequently asked questions

What is Lipidil One used for?+
Lipidil One contains fenofibrate and is prescribed to lower high triglyceride levels, improve mixed dyslipidemia, and reduce total and LDL cholesterol in adults with abnormal lipid profiles.
How does fenofibrate work?+
Fenofibrate activates the nuclear receptor PPARα, which increases the breakdown of fatty acids and the removal of triglyceride‑rich lipoproteins from the bloodstream, resulting in lower triglycerides and modest improvements in other cholesterol fractions.
What is the usual dose of Lipidil One?+
The dose of Lipidil One is determined by the prescribing clinician based on the individual’s lipid levels, renal and hepatic function, and other medical considerations. Patients should follow the prescriber’s specific instructions.
Is Lipidil One safe in pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Safety data for fenofibrate during pregnancy and lactation are limited. It should be used only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus or infant, and the decision must be made by a qualified healthcare professional.
How do I order Lipidil One from GNH USA?+
To place an order, submit an enquiry on the Lipidil One product page at gnh-usa.com, specifying the required quantity. GNH USA works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.
How does Lipidil One compare with the main alternative drug class?+
The primary alternative to fenofibrate is the statin class, which primarily lowers LDL‑cholesterol. Fenofibrate is more effective at reducing triglycerides and modestly raising HDL‑cholesterol, making it useful when triglyceride reduction is a primary goal or when statins alone are insufficient.
How should Lipidil One be stored and handled?+
Lipidil One should be stored at room temperature, below 25 °C, in its original packaging to protect it from moisture and light. Keep the container tightly closed and out of reach of children.
How is Lipidil One given or administered?+
Lipidil One is taken orally, usually once daily with a main meal to enhance absorption. Patients should swallow the tablet whole with water and follow any additional instructions provided by their healthcare professional.
What are the most serious risks to watch for while taking Lipidil One?+
Serious adverse events include rhabdomyolysis or severe muscle breakdown, acute liver injury, gallstone formation, severe allergic reactions, and pancreatitis. Patients should promptly report unexplained muscle pain, dark urine, jaundice, or signs of an allergic reaction.
Who should not use Lipidil One?+
Lipidil One is contraindicated in individuals with known hypersensitivity to fenofibrate or other fibrates, active liver disease, severe renal impairment, and in patients with a history of gallbladder disease that could be aggravated by the medication.
